Power Block TV - Trucks

Post by BigMike »

I just got an email from these guys for some reason. I actually watched this episode last weekend when channel surfing.

I know for the purists it will seem silly, but I thought it was pretty cool and the right way to do a fake patina paint job.

Thanks for this link.
I personally think patina is ok and have a genuine patina on my 64. Although it's more "just an old, bad paint job!" I can't afford to repaint nicely and would like to salvage what's already there in a cost effective method. good info.

That was cool how they did that.
Not my thing personally but I still like the look and the execution.
Have seen where some wipe down a vehicle with patina with CLR, it brightens the paint and cleans up the rust without removing it.
